That first one does not deserve to be there. As a book it didn't represent any original theory or 'higher' thought. Just the ramblings of a prisoner with too much time on his hands.

The list is about influential books, not works that introduce original ideas. IMO Mien Kampf fits the requirements to be influential.

Was the book actually influential, or just the author?
